Despite trying to shorten my girls short list, another one has come into the mix tonight..... Caitlin.
Popularity has dropped significantly over recent years.
Would pronounce the anglicised way.... kate-lyn.
What do we all think?
Thank you x

Love Elodie.

@Spied Thank you! Its a name I never thought of before, until I heard the Radfords baby announcement. Its stuck in my mind since then and my fondness for it has just grown and grown. X

On your list so far - Caitlin wins for me by a country mile - gorgeous name.

Heidi is nice too (but not quite as nice)

Millie is okay - but I know loads of Millies and Tillies (short for Matilda) and some of them are canine.

From your list, my favourites (in order) are Chloe, Summer, Caitlin.

I like Caitlin but prefer the spelling Kaitlyn, not sure why... I aslo like the rest of your list except Millie as its really popular here and I constantly hear it shouted Grin

There are an awful lot of little Caitlins about with a wide variety of spellings. ...
